As a general rule, Hunchentoot should only be used in a multi-threaded
Lisp... :)

Some users convinced me to support Lisps without MP, but this is only
for testing purposes and is frowned upon.  The two possibilities I'm
aware of are:

- SBCL on some platforms; in this case Hunchentoot will issue a
  warning anyway.  (See top of port-sbcl.lisp.)

- CLISP; this Lisp doesn't have MP at all.
